Floor wax or dessert topping?

Candidate or applicant?Politico talks to Alan Moore, who was a Christine O'Donnell staffer in '08, before going to work for Townhall.com, on her career ambitions…

Moore, who first decided to volunteer for O’Donnell after hearing about her at a meeting of college Republicans, said that at one point, O’Donnell talked to him about winning a lucrative television contract with CNN or Fox News Channel.

‘I informed her that most media organizations prohibit their employees from running for office. She didn’t seem to understand and was more interested in getting a contract,’ he recalled. ‘She was more concerned about getting a TV deal than winning office.’
